T206 Hall of Famer Collection with Unusual Advertising Backs (8)

Presented is a very unique collection of eight T206 Hall of Famer cards, highlighted by Cy Young, each with a scarce and unusual advertisement on the reverse. This would be an impressive collection of Hall of Famers with any advertising reverses. Most T206 cards, of course, feature advertising for Sweet Caporal or Piedmont, but the cards in this group have been carefully chosen both for featuring Hall of Famers and for their unusual backs. Each of the cards has been encapsulated and graded by PSA or SGC. The collection consists of the following: Chief Bender - no trees (SGC VG 40, American Beauty), Roger Bresnahan - bat (SGC EX 60, El Principe De Gales), Mordecai Brown - Chicago (SGC EX 60, Tolstoi), Sam Crawford - bat (PSA VG-EX 4, American Beauty), Hugh Duffy (PSA EX 5, American Beauty), Willie Keeler - bat (PSA EX 5, Sovereign), Joe McGinnity (PSA VG-EX 4, Sovereign), and Cy Young - bare hand (PSA VG-EX 4, Old Mill). A great assortment of very noteworthy T206 Hall of Famers featuring unusual advertising backs. Total 8 cards. Reserve $800. Estimate $1,500/$2,500. SOLD FOR $2,644
